[MDEP-805] artifactItem documentation

[jira-importer]

Ewa Śliwińska opened MDEP-805 and commented

I'm trying to find information about {}type{}, overWrite and outputDirectory tags in artifactItem in unpack goal (if they are mandatory and what should be their content).

When googling, I'm finding those two sites:

• Apache Maven Dependency Plugin – dependency:unpack
• Apache Maven Dependency Plugin – Usage

The former roughly mentions what the artifactItem contains, but without detailed explanation.

The latter shows an example, but also does not specify the possible contents in details. Also it says

A default outputDirectory is specified

but doesn't mention what is the default.

Could you please add more comprehensive description of those tags?

Thank you in advance.
